Racial minorities are significantly overrepresented in our #ABQ unhoused population. It is so important that we listen to their stories and make changes to decrease this inequity!

#YouthHomelessness is a huge issue! The first step to counter this is to reach out and listen to the experiences and needs of these youth. That's what we are doing with our @NMyouthcount events this week!

[Homeless Hub @homelesshub]

According to a study, 40% of youth reported that they were younger than 16 when they first experienced #homelessness. This statistic highlights the need for early intervention.

Have you heard of #HomelessBillofRights measures?

People experiencing homelessness are vulnerable to civil and human rights violations. AHCH supports legislation that protects basic rights for every person--regardless of housing status.
